Stonestreet had originally studied to become a prison administrator and then auditioned for a production of the play "Prelude To A Kiss" at the college after Paul dared him to do it. According to the school's website, Stonestreet was then cast in the smallest role.

Theron, a South African actress who won an Oscar for her role in the 2003 film "Monster" and also starred in the 2009 movie "The Road," dated Irish actor Stuart Townsend for nearly a decade. They split up in January 2010. Theron adopted a son, Jackson, in March 2012.

Stonestreet dated Broadway star Katherine Tokarz for almost three years before calling it quits earlier in 2012, according to E! News. The actor's ex-girlfriend is now engaged to writer-producer Bret Calvert, only months after their split.

Stonestreet won his recent Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Comedy Actor for his role as gay father Cameron Tucker on the hit ABC show "Modern Family." He won the same prize in 2010 (and promptly displayed it jokingly in a yard near his dog).
